Ursprung hemoglobinpulvret: Nederländerna. Varför? Det existerar ingen svensk produktion av livsmedelsgodkänt hemoglobinpulver.
Vår specialiserade producent är världsledande på innovativa och förnybara råvaror från köttindustrin - och arbetar enbart med att ta tillvara på restströmmar av näring som annars skulle ha gått förlorad.
Nischad ekologisk produktion existerar inte utan djuren kan komma från alla typer av gårdar - så länge kvalitetskraven för hälsan hos det enskilda djuret är uppfyllda.
Hemoglobinpulvret analyseras sedan noggrant utifrån en rad olika markörer, t ex patogener, tungmetaller och pesticider - det är även garanterat fritt från hormoner & antibiotika.
Eftersom råvaran (blod) korrekt hanterad är steril, blir också hemoglobinet mycket rent. En av få animaliska råvaror som inte blir automatiskt bättre kvalitetsmässigt i ekologiskt utförande.
Vi förespråkar likväl självklart en god djuromsorg (vi är inga fan av den konventionella köttindustrin) och hoppas på en dedikerad ekologisk och svensk produktion i framtiden.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The Feméa range is intended for women of reproductive age, but can be used by anyone who wants to enrich their diet with natural heme iron. Iron supplements may be appropriate during periods of increased need, such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, intense physical activity, or after blood donation.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should always consult a midwife or doctor before use. -
Heme iron always comes from animal sources and is absorbed significantly more efficiently by the body than so-called non-heme iron, which is found in plant-based and synthetic sources in various forms. Heme iron is also considered a gentle source of iron.
This is partly due to its higher bioavailability compared to other forms of iron, and partly because it is absorbed through a unique uptake mechanism,likely involving the transport protein Heme Carrier Protein 1 (HCP1).
Other forms of iron must first be broken down in the stomach before they can be absorbed in the small intestine via a different transport protein, DMT1. -
There is currently no certified organic production of hemoglobin powder within the EU. This is because hemoglobin powder is a highly specialized foodtech raw material that is produced from blood collected during meat production, and no dedicated organic supply chain exists for this specific ingredient at present.
The cattle used may come from both conventional and organic farms, provided that all strict EU quality, safety, and traceability requirements are met. Regardless of farming type, the raw material must comply with one of the EU’s most stringent regulatory frameworks for food production.
We strongly support high standards of animal welfare and sustainable farming practices, and we hope to see certified organic production of hemoglobin powder become possible in the future. -
No, it does not. For this specific ingredient, organic certification does not result in a higher-quality end product.
Our hemoglobin powder is rigorously tested for pathogens, pesticides, heavy metals, antibiotics, hormones, and other contaminants. When handled correctly, blood is essentially sterile, which results in an exceptionally pure raw material with very high nutritional quality.
Because of its unique nature and production process, hemoglobin powder is one of the very few animal-based raw materials where organic certification does not equal higher quality in the end product.
